- The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe, by C.S. Lewis
- The Dark is Rising, by Susan Cooper
- Holes, by Louis Sachar
- Saffy’s Angel, by Hilary McKay
- The Watsons Go to Birmingham, by Christopher Paul Curtis
- The Book of Three, by Lloyd Alexander
- The Hobbit, by JRR Tolkein
- The Giver, by Lois Lowry
- Elsewhere, by Gabrielle Zevin
Not to brag, but … pretty cool, right? Are any of these among your childhood favorites? Do you have other MG recommendations for me? Let me know in the comments!

When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead!!!!
But, of course, Narnia tops my list. Always. 🙂
I haven’t read When You Reach Me Yet. It looks so suspenseful and spooky. Definitely adding it to my list!
Not spooky at all! Just really intriguing. Will make your head spin in a good way!
Can’t wait!
